Windstruck

 

But instantly He spoke to them, saying, Take courage! I Am! Stop being afraid!

And Peter answered Him, Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.

He said, Come! So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water, and he came toward Jesus.

Matthew 14:27-29 AMPC

 

After Jesus and Peter got into the boat, the raging wind ceased.

And they crossed over and landed at Gennesaret.

There is a purpose to the disorientation, fear, panic, cold, wet, tiredness and misery.

There is a purpose to being spinned around in a tossed lake

There is a purpose to the confusion and battering

And that is to bring a touch and  healing to the region.

 

And when they had crossed over to the other side, they went ashore at Gennesaret.

And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent around into all the surrounding country and brought to Him all who were sick

And begged Him to let them merely touch the fringe of His garment; and as many as touched it were perfectly restored.

Matthew 14:34-36 AMPC
